Please help create a GUI! Any ideas or guides are welcome!

Create drag-and-drop GUIs:
- GUI Min or Explan Main GUI Menu with top button! (Also the button to move drag and drop move)
- Main GUI Menu: Stay in the center of the screen AND Always on the left or right side of the screen!
- When you click on one of the menus, you will create or create a GUI: always on the left or right side of the main menu!

You,

Something like this perhaps: 

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

Global $aChildPosn[3][2]
$iChild_Width = 200
$hChild = 9999 ;Need this place holder or we get an undefined variable later

$hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 500, 500)

$cMenu_1_1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("1_1", 0, 20, 40, 20)
$cMenu_1_2 = GUICtrlCreateButton("1_2", 0, 40, 40, 20)
; Determine child GUI position depending on menu position
$aChildPosn[1][0] = 40 ; x coord
$aChildPosn[1][1] = 20 ; y coord

$cMenu_2_1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("2_1", 460, 120, 40, 20)
$cMenu_2_2 = GUICtrlCreateButton("2_2", 460, 140, 40, 20)

                        $cLabel = GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 10, 10, 100, 20)

Did you try Melba's suggestion Trong/@VIP/You/etc.? Did it not work? A screenshot is great, but you've been provided an example, if it isn't working for you you need to explain what is happening.

It's way too late for me to write out the example but you can look at using 

GUIRegisterMsg($WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING, WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING)

Func WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING($hWndFrom, $iMsg, $wParam, $lParam)
    Local $stWinPos = DllStructCreate("uint;uint;int;int;int;int;uint", $lParam)
    Local $iLeft = DllStructGetData($stWinPos, 3)
    Local $iTop = DllStructGetData($stWinPos, 4)
    Local $iWidth = DllStructGetData($stWinPos, 5)
    Local $iHeight = DllStructGetData($stWinPos, 6)
EndFunc

This will let you know when a GUI is being moved to adjust the other GUI, or not allow the move (using DLLStructSetData will set the position of the window and interrupt the actual move).

Well here's a very very simple one, that shows the concept. 

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

Global $hMain = GUICreate("Main Window", 400, 600)
Global $hChild = GUICreate("Child Window", 200, 600)

GUIRegisterMsg($WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING, WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hMain)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hChild)
WinMove($hMain, "", 0, 0)

While (True)
    Switch (GUIGetMsg())
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Func WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING($hWnd, $iMsg, $wParam, $lParam)
    Local $tWindowPos = DllStructCreate("uint;uint;int;int;int;int;uint", $lParam)
    Local $iLeft = DllStructGetData($tWindowPos, 3)
    Local $iTop = DllStructGetData($tWindowPos, 4)
    Local $iWidth = DllStructGetData($tWindowPos, 5)
    Local $iHeight = DllStructGetData($tWindowPos, 6)
    Local Static $iLastX = 0
    Local Static $iLastY = 0

    Switch ($hWnd)
        Case $hChild
            DllStructSetData($tWindowPos, 3, $iLastX)
            DllStructSetData($tWindowPos, 4, $iLastY)
        Case $hMain
            WinMove($hChild, "", $iLeft + $iWidth, $iTop)
            $iLastX = $iLeft + $iWidth
            $iLastY = $iTop
    EndSwitch
EndFunc
